There are no eligibility requirements to take the Dental Assisting National Board (DANB) Radiation Health and Safety (RHS) exam. However, completing our dental radiology course can assist you in preparing for the RHS exam.
Our course includes an RHS readiness exam as part of the curriculum and will put you in much better position to pass the exam on your first attempt.

The highest degree, or terminal degree, in nursing is the doctoral degree.
We offer the practice-focused Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) for students seeking to ascend to the highest ranks of the nursing field and begin making a significant impact in how nursing is implementing evidence-based practice and researching into the practice setting.

Our clinical placement team will assist with securing a preceptor or placing you in a faculty-led rotation. We partner with a variety of clinical sites, ideally within 100 miles of your location. While student input is valuable, specific placements or preceptors cannot be guaranteed.

No, but you can get much closer to reaching that goal. You will need to complete additional education in the NP specialty of your choosing before becoming eligible to practice.
